Hello, I'm so excited today!! I feel such a closeness to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and to get the email this morning from my publisher that I am the featured author with a photo of the man himself, with the caption "I Have a Dream," was phenomenal. In 1968, Dr. King was killed on my birthday. Today is an awesome day for me. I am reveling in the celebrations that mean so much to me.

About Me

My life began in a small town in Arkansas, the fourth of twelve children. My husband and I have six children between us and nine grandchildren. After retiring from GM Corporation after 31 years of service, we moved to Arizona from Michigan, then to Arkansas.

After seeing most of the USA in a big rig, I settled in to a more contemporary job, my present, as a 911 dispatcher. No, I wasn't the driver. My husband was, but sometimes I would imagine myself under the wheel.

As fate would have it, we are now raising two grandsons, fifteen and seventeen, so retirement again isn't in view for at least two more years, but will be much awaited.

I've toyed with writing all my life, but never produced anything until last year when I wrote my first book, which isn't published yet. My goal is to become a published author, and my dream is to be a very good one.

Mission accomplished! I've been a published author for sometime now and anxiously awaiting my second publication. Enjoying fulfilling my bucket list.
